Its advanced design aims to enhance stability and reduce pressure on the kneecap, making it suitable for daily wear and a wide range of physical activities.
Key Features:
- Anatomically contoured patella gel pad for kneecap protection.
- Removable dual-side copper stabilizers for enhanced joint stability.

Setup and How to Wear
Proper fitting is crucial for the effectiveness and comfort of your NEENCA knee brace. Please follow these steps to ensure correct application:
- Measure Your Thigh: Before wearing, measure the circumference of your thigh 6 inches (15 cm) above the center of your kneecap. Refer to the size chart below to select the appropriate brace size.
- Position the Brace: Slide the knee brace onto your leg, ensuring the open patella design is centered over your kneecap. The hinged stabilizers should align with the sides of your knee joint.
- Secure the Straps: Fasten the top and bottom Velcro straps. The patented "X-Strap" fixing system allows for adjustable compression and a snug fit from front to back. Adjust until the brace feels secure but not overly tight, allowing for comfortable movement.
- Check for Comfort: Bend and straighten your knee a few times to ensure the brace moves naturally with your leg and does not pinch or restrict circulation.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and hygiene of your NEENCA Professional Hinged Knee Brace, please follow these care instructions:
- Hand Wash Only: Gently hand wash the brace with mild soap and cold water.
- Do Not Bleach: Avoid using bleach or harsh detergents, as these can damage the fabric and components.
- Air Dry: Lay flat or hang to air dry completely. Do not tumble dry or iron.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Dry in a shaded area to prevent material degradation.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your NEENCA Professional Hinged Knee Brace, consider the following:
- Discomfort or Pinching: Re-check the strap adjustments. Ensure the brace is not too tight and that the patella opening is correctly centered. Verify you have the correct size according to the measurement guide.
- Slipping: Ensure all straps are securely fastened and adjusted for a snug fit. The non-slip features are most effective when the brace is properly sized and applied.
- Reduced Support: Check if the removable side stabilizers are correctly inserted and positioned. If they feel loose, ensure they are seated firmly within their pockets.
If problems persist after attempting these solutions, please contact NEENCA customer service for further assistance.
